Rose Moon Collection: Limited edition: A little lunacy Initial Impression: ..and there were roses. On first sniff out of the bottle all I can smell is the beautiful scent of roses, another sniff and there is something more complex behind the roses I just can't name it at this point in time. While wearing: This starts of very roseh eavy but over time other notes come out. The rose starts to mellow after about five minutes and it became a wood scent with flashes of honey and rose, occassionaly I catch a slight citrus scent. Conclusion: When I saw this one I knew I had to have it not only were the notes in it some of my favorite notes but roses are my favorite flower and June is my birthday it just seemed to perfect. This scent seems to last a lot longer on me then other scents using less then I usualy would. I really wish I had bought two or three bottles because I just know this is going to be one of my most loved scents. While wearing it I feel girly and calm. It brings to mind a picture of sitting on a porch overlooking a beautiful garden on a summers night. In front of my is a jug of iced lemon tea and a plate of honey cakes. In the air the smell of roses and woods and night blooming jasmine. This is the scent of romance and summer love, the scent of a young woman discovering what love is all about and the scent of the garden. This is a garden i want to visit often. Rating: 4/5

Initial Impression: roses and jasmin, very sweet but there is something else slightly spicy in the background. While wearing: The amber scent comes out after wearing it for a little while and blends nicely with the roses and jasmine. For the first little while this scent is lovely, floral and feminine but then it changes and goes all soapy/baby powdery on me. Conclusion: In the bottle I love the smell of this one and love the smell when it is first applied but unfortuantly this one doesn't like my skin chemestry. This is the first scent that has gone like this on me and I am dissapointed. I do like this scent in the bottle though and so I will keep it and wear it in a scent locket. Rating: 2.5/5 Would buy? No would be a waste of money when it goes to soap on my skin.

Inital Impression: Juicy plum and sweet florals. While Wearing: It starts out smelling very fruity and juicy but soon the sweetness retreats leaving a dark note to it. After wearing it for a while it becomes a wonderful complex blend of floral and spice with a touch of fruit keeping it a little sweet. I imagine a young girl dressed in a white dress stained with blood. Innocent and dark all at once. Sweet bitter death - A grave drapped in dying roses and other flowers with incense burning somewhere near by. Conclusion: This scent is perfect for my current Vampire the Requiem Charecter. At first it is juicy and sweet and innocent with something darker hiding underneath it. As time goes on the darkness comes out and the innocent sweetness retreats. This is the scent for those that wear the I am so sweet and innocent mask when something much more dangerous hides behind it. This will be a scent I buy a bottle of to use for roleplaying purposes. For every day wear I do really like this. I like the sweetness with something dark behind it. This scent is perfect for the days when I am being a bitch but everyone still thinks I am the nice innocent kitty. Rating: 4/5 Would buy: Yes I need a bottle of this as it will get much wear being a charecter scent for me. It will also get some wear as an everyday scent.

Inital impression: Delicate, Sweet but not sugary, Mostly smell peach While wearing: Starts of as peach with the musk behind it but as it drys the white musk and bergamot notes come through and the peach fades to the background. Conclusion: It is light and etheral like the fae playing in a glade on a spring afternoon. A good scent for the warmer months of the yea. I like this scent but don't know if I would wear it much. Rating: 3/5 Would buy: Not a bottle perhaps an imp to keep around though.

Iniatial impression: Bright happy, sweey citrusy manadrin. A foody scent While wearing: Creamy fig, sickly sweet almost smells like a childs lollie. Conclusion: Too sweet I could only stand it on for about 15 minutes after that I had to wash it off as it was making me feel sick. Dissapointing as on first sniff all I could think of was Yum. Out of all that I have tested this is the first one to end up in the swaps/sell pile. Rating: 2/5 Would buy: No

Initial impression: Oh so yummy, almond smell with something hiding behind it but oh so strong almond. I could sit here sniffing it all day - Perhaps I will have to try it as a room scent. While wearing: Sweet with something slightly bitter hiding behind, Musk and smoky like a ritual at the dark of the moon. Ethereal it is there but not there. Conclusion: This is rich and sweet with a slight bitterness hiding in the distance. It is a witch at midnight on the dark of the moon, a quiet fey glade in the evening. On me it smells mostly of a smoky musk and almond. Rating: 4/5 Would Buy: For sure.

Iniatal impression: Woody/earthy, warm, pine forest. Dads workshed, It brings back memorys of bushwalks and camping. While wearing: The scent of wood with patchouli behind it. Conclusion: I really like this one as a warmer heavier scent compared to the lighter ones I usualy wear. It is more of a Masculine scent and something I think would smell better on the boyfriend then on me. It is named well as the scent reminds me of rich people, of having money and not being afraid to use it and of the rich people who know how to use it. For days when I want to be reminded of the outdoors this one is great. Blackrosepassion

First Impression: Dreamy, lazy, flowers, spring/summer. Warm afternoons lazing in the sun when you don't have to be anywhere or do anything. Second Impression: Somewhat smoky. Theres an earthy note and a creaminess to it. A darker feeling to it from before but still reminds me of lazy summer days. Conclusion: Intoxicating, hyptonic. A cat stretching in the sun, lazing in a hammock under a tree with no cares in the world. A scent for using either as a sleep scent or on a summers day. One that I think I will have to buy a bottle of as I can see the imp dissapering quickly. 3.5/5

Yummy yum yummy Sudha Segara is warm and calming transporting me back to a time when my life was a lot easier and I felt safe and warm. In the bottle all I can smell is the warming smell of ginger but about 15 minutes after putting it on I smell milk and honey smell with just a pinch of ginger it is yummy and reminds me of warm milk and honey when I can't sleep. After a few hours the smell is more milk and honey. The scent is not strong after a few hours I can't smell it too strongly on my wrist but every now and again I catch a whiff of it floating around me and it brings a smile to my face. A good scent for days when I am feeling down and need comforting. I think it would also make a fantastic sleep scent. Blackrosepassion

In the bottle I smell Chocolate and mandarin thats sparlks memorys of my first chocolate orange and jaffas at the movies theres something else there too but I can't put my finger on it. It smells warm and slightly spicy though. On first impression in the bottle this smells too strong for me and I really don't think it will work on me. After five minutes on the chcolate smell has retreated a lot its still there but is a background note. I can now smell a combination of fruit and spice - I guess that would be the manadrin and the saffron. Its not as strong now and is wearable. Conclusion: After a few hours on it is still fruity and spicy I like it but not enough that I would buy it for myself, HOWEVER My boyfriend tried this one on and I really think it works better on a man then on a woman on him I love the smell of it and think I might have to get him a 5ml bottle of it next time I order from the lab. Blackrosepassion It is now the next day after my boyfriend and I tried this scent and I have to laugh. I got up this morning to find my imp missing and a note sitting where it should have been. It seems that my boyfriend liked this one enough to kidnap it and take it to work with him - Oh well at least I know what to get him for Christmas now.

In the bottle this smells strong. I have avoided trying it for the last week because it smelt too strong for me and I really didn't think that I would like it but today while smelling my oils this one appealed to me and so at last it is getting tried. In the bottle I smell a maraschino cherries and almonds a smell that reminds me of Christmas and Wedding cake. Five minutes after putting it on there is still the sweetness of the cherries but something else as well. A herbal/earthy smell. Later: The cherry smell is gone, there is still a hint of almond though and it has devloped a floral girly scent something like roses and spice. I don't mind this one at this stage. I quite like the rose/floral smell but then again I have always been a rose girl. Conclusion: At first I thought no way and avoided trying it but in the end I think that it is quite a nice scent. Not one that I would ever buy a bottle of but perhaps one to try and have an imp at least of around for those times when I feel like it. I haven't tried it on the boyfriend so I don't know if it works as a love oil but it has got me at least thinking about the naughty side of my life and I think that if he was home I would be pouncing him so perhaps it does work. The smell is a lot heavier then I tend to gravitate towards. I wouldn't wear this as a daytime perfume but for an evening out with my man or while trying to seduce him it might just work.
